End of a phase....and FISHING!




I am so sorry it's taken me so long to update the blog. Where does the time go?!


Last Thursday was the last of this particular phases' treatments. Whew! One more phase to go...then maintenance! Once again we are told that Trey is doing so well. Many kids feel the side effects from this particular chemo and at some point the dose stays level and is not increased. Trey hasn't had all the side effects so his chemo has been increased each time. This last one was the max dose that he can receive. The doctor laughed and said Trey drinks this like it's water! (Although you don't drink this chemo, it's given through his port...an IV push) So far Trey has been able to tolerate the chemo. Amazing.
Trey has been wanting to go fishing, so we decided to go last weekend. He felt fine for most of it and we caught 3 fish! We look forward to going more over the summer months. We are humbled by the power of prayer and how it has been a great blessing in our lives especially the last few months. Thank you again for your prayers.

  1. Looking good there, Trey! Was one of the 3 fish caught from your rod and line? You'll have to take us to your favorite fishing spot when we come this summer! We love to see your smile! Hugs and more hugs...papa and gigi

  4. I've been up at the Huntsman all day with Clark and have been thinking about Trey a lot. Seeing this picture made my day. So glad to hear that you're doing better. When I pulled up your blog and Willow saw the picture she said, "That's Trey. He was at Grandma Illa's house." It was good to see you. Keep up the good work. God is great!
